10 billionaires and Leonardo DiCaprio just invested in a startup that claims it can grow hundreds of real diamonds in 2 weeks
Leonardo DiCaprio in "Blood Diamond." He's now an investor in Diamond Foundry.
Diamond Foundry has spent the last three years quietly working on an ambitious project.

Some big moves ahead for Hyperloop Technologies, the LA-based futuristic tubular transportation startup with high ambitions to rethink high-speed transportation services to “work anywhere and live anywhere and be anywhere”.

Emily While, formerly COO of Snapchat and an ex-Facebook executive, is joining as a board observer.
